Frequently asked questions
Do I need an API key?
No! MusicBrainz is completely free and open. No authentication required. Just subscribe and start searching. Rate limit is 1 request per second.
What is an MBID?
MBID stands for MusicBrainz Identifier — a unique UUID assigned to every entity in the database (artists, releases, recordings, labels, works). Use search tools to find MBIDs, then use get_* tools with the MBID for detailed info.
What's the difference between a release and a release group?
A release is a specific physical or digital version of an album (e.g. the 2012 remastered CD). A release group groups all versions of the same album together (e.g. "The Dark Side of the Moon" as a canonical work). Use release groups for finding the canonical album.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
